Prosecutor Joseph Deters has served the city of Cincinnati with a subpoena, directing that no video or pictures be released to the public regarding the death of 16-year-old Kyle Plush, City Council members say.

Police originally planned to announce the results of the investigation into the death of Plush Wednesday morning.

But that meeting of the Law and Public Safety Committee in City Council chambers has been put on hold until further notice.

“We will be complying with that subpoena, therefore those records are not available for the presentation,” said Cincinnati City Solicitor Paula Boggs Muething.

Deters put out a short statement which reads, "We want to review everything from the Cincinnati Police Department including videos and still pictures. We also want to review the administrative report from Hamilton County Sheriff Jim Neil. We expect our review of this matter will be completed by early next week and our decision announced then."

Deters said a discussion with Ron Plush, Kyle’s father, brought up concerns about some pictures in the investigative file.

“We just hadn’t seen them, and I wanted to see if there was an evidentiary issue, which I told Kyle’s dad that.” Deters said.

Plush, a sophomore at Seven Hills School, died in an accident outside his school on April 10. He was found in his van, crushed by a bench seat.

An autopsy revealed he died of asphyxia due to chest compression

Plush called 911 twice while he was in a van, but help never came. Dispatch response has been under heavy scrutiny in the case.

In the 911 call, Plush is heard saying, "I probably don't have much time left, so tell my mom that I love her if I die."

Tragically, it appears Plush could not hold his cellphone with his hands and was using voice commands to dial 911. That meant the police dispatcher who took the call could hear Plush, but could not get him to pinpoint his location.

Plush was found dead by his father hours after he made the 911 calls.

On Monday, Cincinnati officials outlined changes for the emergency center that include adding staff, training and technology, as well as studying how other call centers function.

The city is spending almost a $500,000 to fix issues identified at the 911 center. Almost none of that money will target the problems that led to the death. The City Council won’t be able to address those problems until the investigation is made public, revealing where the breakdowns occurred.

"I think a lot of improvements have been made, but as has been discussed, all it takes is one tragedy and here we are. Perfection is what we always have to go for," Cincinnati Police Chief Eliot Isaac said.
